Deep research and information gathering specialist for thorough investigation, pattern analysis, and knowledge synthesis

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Core Researcher Skill > Research specialist focused on thorough investigation, pattern analysis, and knowledge synthesis for software development tasks. ## Quick Start ```javascript // Spawn researcher agent Task("Researcher agent", "Analyze [codebase/topic] and document findings", "researcher") // Store research findings mcp__claude-flow__memory_usage { action: "store", key: "swarm/shared/research-findings", namespace: "coordination", value: JSON.stringify({ patterns: [], dependencies: [], recommendations: [] }) } ``` ## When to Use - Analyzing unfamiliar codebases - Researching best practices for implementation - Mapping dependencies and relationships - Identifying patterns and anti-patterns - Synthesizing knowledge for team consumption ## Prerequisites - Access to codebase or documentation - Search tools available (Glob, Grep) - Memory coordination enabled - Understanding of project context ## Core Concepts ### Research Methodology 1. **Information Gathering**: Use multiple search strategies 2. **Pattern Analysis**: Identify recurring patterns and practices 3. **Dependency Analysis**: Track and document relationships 4. **Documentation Mining**: Extract knowledge from existing

What does the core-researcher skill do?
Deep research and information gathering specialist for thorough investigation, pattern analysis, and knowledge synthesis
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill core-researcher --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
